CD 162 [010] BGM CO signal in a nice shade of purple. This is off the shelf of my personal collection. These almost always have base flakes due to the fragile nature of the glass and this one is no exception. The good news is that there are only 2 and they are in the back in the 10:00 and 11:00 position. They measure roughly 3/8" across, are shallow and do not traverse the base. They are invisible when viewed from the front. There is an open bubble to the left of the B and on the dome top in the shape of a comma. I consider these both from the factory as they likely came off the annealing line this way. The entry point of the threads has some slight chipping as well but again this is common on BGMs. It took me a long time to find this particular example and they don't come up for sale very often where they look so good from the front as you want them to. The price guide dropped these from $300 - $350 down to $250 - $300 in the latest edition. I will offer this one up very fairly without any buyer's premiums for $200 shipped. First email as always. PayPal welcomed. Contact me first for details.
